Nearly a year for 10p CD recordable discs with wonky tracks on them.
I won't spend another penny on anything at HU now, they are dead to me.
I will spend money on whoever releases good music at a reasonable price or great music at a less reasonable price. There was a time when HU used to release things with lethal theory among others, suddenly that ended and HHU2 came out as the world's crappiest EP.

I'm not upset about is being a CD-R. I have many releases that were done that way and I haven't had any issues with the. I'll be happy to have the discs when I get mine.

He is a good guy.
Every interaction I have had with him has been positive. He replaced a track that got corrupted in my diversions USB. He told me how to get the USB out of the Dark Shadows Steel box thingy because I couldn't find it. He always responded to my moaning emails about where were the collectors edition and Blu The Roof emails.
He tried his best and did everything he could. He really wanted the best for HU and for Hardcore in general. He got let down so many times by so many people.
My speculation
I don't think he is involved with the day to day running of HU anymore. As far as I can tell Fracus does the business stuff and the sorting of albums and Linda with the same last name as Darwin deals with the shipping. I'm assuming they're related or married. This is what the moving thing was about.
End of my speculation.
I feel very sad about how everything turned out. I know I was one of the people piling on the pressure when deliveries were missed and promises were broken. I now feel really bad for that. 99.9% of the issues were not his. The only thing he was guilty of is trusting too much and believing people when they said they would do something.
He had to deal with upset people like me for issues he couldn't help. I'm sorry for my part in that.
I hope that whatever he is doing now he is happier and dealing with less stress. He said a few years ago about going to do home theatre instalations so I assume he is doing that or taking a well earned break.
Nope! Jon (CDJay) is very much in charge of HU and the daily operations. A short break was had for reasons that I will not go into. He is back and raring to go! A lot of exciting projects in development.

I don't know, unless fracus & Darwin remember where they mislaid that talent from 2013-16 I think disk 1 could be another dronefest.

Did you get any confirmation if he's going to try to fix the Sharkey, VG, JAL and whatever bundles I don't own?

A year was rather a long pre order.....
Might start buying from the HU store again. I haven't brought anything for a while in protest until I received these cds.

If anyone wants fixes for the broken tracks contact me with a screenshot of your receipt / order email showing the order number and what you brought and I will provide them. They are linked above. I still haven?t got my CDs. Left out again

Yeah finally got mine a month or so ago, was more than surprised to see them when I came home from work, near forgot them lol, but there's mistakes on both cds unfortunately, 1 track is missing from each cd, and 1 track is repeated twice! pity on the storm 1 especially, as funky drums is a quality track
